Xiao Tong was now a baby. For an old monster… I mean, expert cultivator, who had lived for thousands of years, he was very good at acting. Xiao Tong had fully adapted to the life of a baby. He would only need to sleep, shit, eat and sleep again.

Whenever he saw someone he liked, he would ask for a hug. He was very good at winning people’s hearts.

When people saw him, they would gasp. “Wow. He is so cute and beautiful!”

However, Xiao Tong didn’t like it when they called him beautiful. He was a boy. He was handsome, not beautiful. Unfortunately, no one could understand his protest so his personal opinion was ignored.

“Hmm. Tong Tong, what’s wrong?” Grandma Xiao saw her grandson’s wrinkled face and asked curiously, “Why are you so unhappy? Who provoked you?”

Tong Tong’s hands and feet moved randomly, and his mouth made a babbling sound.

When Mother Xiao saw this, she touched his little face with her hand and said with a smile, “Haha. It really looks like Tong Tong is not happy.” Mother Xiao couldn’t read mind so she didn’t know what Xiao Tong was unhappy about.

Just as Mother Xiao was comforting the child, Father Xiao walked over.

“Qiuying, the store in City Z is opening tomorrow. I’m going to the fields to take a look,” Father Xiao said.

The vegetables that were sent to the store had to be the freshest.

Mother Xiao nodded and said, “Well, it’s quite cold in the fields. Put on more clothes.”

Father Xiao nodded and said, “Okay!” Then, Papa Xiao looked at Xiao Tong and said with a smile, “Tong Tong, be good at home. Grandpa has to go to work.”

Xiao Tong wanted to say that he wanted to go too.

However, he could only make a mumbling sound.

“Tong Tong doesn’t want Grandpa to leave, is it?” Father Xiao took the child from Mother Xiao and said, “Let Grandpa hug our Tong Tong. He’s so clever!” Father Xiao held the child for a while and then handed the child back to Mother Xiao. Then, he saw Xiao Lingyu dressed in simple clothes. He frowned slightly and asked, “Yu ‘Er, are you going to the fields too?”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Papa, I’m going to the fields first. Then, I’m going to the tofu products company to check out the goods that are going to be delivered tomorrow.”

Mother Xiao said, “Yu’er, put on your clothes and hat. You haven’t reached a full 120 days yet. You shan’t expose yourself to the winds.”

Xiao Lingyu said helplessly, “Mom, it’s only five or six days away. Is this really necessary?”

Mother Xiao said very seriously, “Yes. It’s necessary even if it’s just one day away, much less five or six days. Plus, you are still nursing, so you have to be careful. Otherwise, if you catch a cold, your son will suffer.”

A nursing mother had to watch her health. If they were sick, the children would be affected. The adults might not be so ill, but the children would be.

Xiao Lingyu knew her mother’s concern, so she said, “Okay. I’ll pay more attention.”

Father Xiao had already taken her hat out of the house and handed it to her daughter. He said, “I don’t know why you don’t like wearing hats.”

Xiao Lingyu took the hat and put it on. She said, “I feel very clumsy wearing a hat.” The hats were thick knitted wool hats. They were not that fashionable. However, Xiao Lingyu still loved them because they were hand-knited by Mother Xiao. However, Xiao Lingyu would feel her head being cooped up wearing the hats. Therefore, Xiao Lingyu did not like wearing hats.

Mother Xiao glanced at her and said, “It doesn’t matter. You have to wear the hat. It’s such a cold day. If you’re not careful, you might get a migraine.”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Alright, Mom, I’ll put it on. Dad, let’s go together. Mom, we’re going.” Then, she turned and pinched Xiao Tong’s cheek. She said with a smile, “Baby, mom is leaving. Listen to Grandma and be good, okay?”

‘I want to go. I want to go play too!’ Xiao Tong said. But he was only babbling.

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “I know baby doesn’t want Mommy to leave but Mommy has to go work. Be good.”

Xiao Tong, “…” He felt like dying. Xiao Tong couldn’t communicate with babbling. Xiao Tong realized he needed to learn how to speak as soon as possible.

When he was in the other world, the extremely talented children were born with the ability to speak. Xiao Tong was the same.

He was very young when his mother died and he was brought to an unfamiliar place. He was frightened. Then, he burst into tears and said, “Where am I? I’m so scared!”

When he said the first sentence, all the elders of the Heavenly Gate Sect were stunned at first, but then their faces became excited and happy.

“Haha, this child can speak from birth, so he must have outstanding talent. We should test his aptitude.”

“No, he’s still too young for a test. We need to wait until he’s two or three.”

Therefore, because of that, Xiao Tong lived happily on Sky Mountain.

However, it was different in this life. This was an ordinary world. Most children had to learn how to talk around the age of one. The earliest was ten months. However, there were geniuses who could talk within a few months. Xiao Tong decided he’d be those kind of geniuses. That way, he could communicate easier with the adults.

For now, he could only watch helplessly as his mother and grandfather leave the house.

Xiao Tong was not cold despite the water. He was cultivating so his body was always warm.

Mother Xiao saw the unhappy Xiao Tong and she smiled, “Tong ‘Er wants to go out and play too? Then, Grandma will bring you out on a walk.” Then, she went into the house to grab baby clothes.

Xiao Tong, “…” Really, I’m not cold. So, don’t give me so many layers. I can’t even move anymore.

However, Xiao Tong had no idea there was something called, Grandma thinks you’re cold and Grandma thinks you’re hungry.

…

Xiao Lingyu and Father Xiao came to the foot of the mountain.

Although the winter had passed, the weather was still gloomy and cold. When the wind blew, it felt bone-chilling.

Therefore, all the vegetables were planted in greenhouses.

Xiao Lingyu hired a professional to help her manage these greenhouses. As for the spring water, she secretly poured them into the cisterns used by the greenhouses. No one doubted anything.

As for the vegetables she moved out of the farming space, they were managed by Mother Xiao and Father Xiao in the past. However, after Xiao Lingyu’s birth, that plot of land was managed by Father Xiao, Grandmother Xiao and Grandfather Xiao. The plot was close to a pool filled with spring water. Of course, Grandma and Grandpa Xiao didn’t know about the secret. They only knew that the vegetables planted on these six Mus of land were more valuable than the other vegetables. So they managed the land themselves.

They would only hire people to help harvesting and planting. They were worried about outsiders. In any case, six Mus of land were not that big.

Xiao Lingyu walked into the greenhouse and saw that the vegetables were lush and green. They were not affected by the weather.

Father Xiao looked at the vegetables and asked, “Yu ‘Er, how many vegetables should we pick on the first day of opening?”

Before this, the sales volume was two to three thousand catties for shop in Xing Yin County, five thousand catties for Zeng Family’s vegetable shop and one thousand five hundred catties for Jun Hao Hotel.

The daily sales volume was also about 10,000 catties.

Now, they were opening a big shop with three floors and 1,600 square meters in City Z? How much vegetables were needed to fill up the shop?

Father Xiao didn’t know about the market in City Z so he asked his daughter.

Xiao Lingyu explained, “Our supermarket will sell three levels of vegetables. The villagers’ vegetables is one level. I’ve already booked more than 10,000 catties from them.

“The second-grade and first-grade vegetables are from our own farms. The second-grade crops are around 10,000 catties and the first-grade will be around 3,000 catties. With the peanuts, red beans, sweet potatoes, and so on, we’ll have around 2,000 more catties. That is all we need for the first day. We’ll make adjustments based on the response.”
